Why Research on Prevention Is Critical to Progress against Cancer

By 2025, an estimated 2.1 million people in the United States will be diagnosed with cancer every year. This is a 31-percent increase from 2012 that is due in part to the aging of the U.S. population and the greater use of cancer screening. The estimated number of annual cancer-related deaths is expected to increase even faster, by 37 percent, from 620,000 to 850,000 by 2025.
